Megazoids were a humanoid species from the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. By 2293, members of this species were serving on Starfleet vessels, including one Crewman Dax.
Megazoids had some distinctive facial features, though their most distinguishing characteristic was their large, unusually-shaped, webbed feet, which made it impossible for them to wear the same footwear as most humanoids. This species apparently did not have footwear of its own either, making their feet that much more noticeable. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
The name of Dax's species came from the film's script. [1] The novelization of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country gave the species name as "Zeosian".
